HYPNOTIC FRANCES.
Their Successful Application as a Medi-
cine In MANY Critical Affections.

At recent meeting of the Societe de
Biologie, NM. Fontan and Segard
read an interesting paper on the appli-
cations of suggestion to therapeutics,
The writers have collected hundred
cases in which they have availed them
selves of the possibility of putting their
patients into an hypnotic state, to sug-
gcst a partial or entire cure, Their
conclusion is that suggestion may be
of great value in cases where disorders
of the motor or ScnSory powers exist or
even where there are anatomical dis
orders affecting the circulatory or Sc
cretory systems, such as follow upon
traumatismS or upon general diseases,
such as rheumatic diathesis and others.
they have employed hypnotic sugges-
ton in eases of traumatic arthritis,
cerebral shock, urethritis, dyspepsia
and acute rheumatism, with good re-
| suits, in most eases having been able
to effect complete cure in from three
to six sittings 1t may be added that
none of the patients were at all hyster-
ical. From perusal of the observa.
tons quoted by the gentlemen named,
it would seem that the influence of the
mind on the body is greater and deeper
than has hitherto been imagined. The
way in which NM. Fontan and Segard
operate IS very simple. The subject i:
put into hypnotic trance (only three
per cont of the patents are refractory
to this part of the proccss), and is told
for instance, that his knee (in case Of
hydarthrosis or arthritis) will work
easily and without pain, or that Gin d
eases of dyspepsia) the most indigesti.
BILE foods will be easily digested. Gen
orally the cures have been effected in q
progressive manner, the disappearance
of one symptom being suggested at tht
first sitting, that of some other at the
lcxt, and so on,--Paris Letter 10 Sci
